Chapel Hill Luxury Homes For Sale

Written by Helen Glenn Court

Chapel Hill luxury homes for sale include those in the Governors Park and Meadowmont communities, both planned and begun in the last 10 or 12 years of the 20th century. Across the greater Triangle area, the towns of Cary, Durham, and Chapel Hill and the city of Raleigh all offer a number of luxury homes. The top range is perhaps $4 million. The bottom range is perhaps $300,000 to $500,000.

Regardless of the settlement price on a house bought in Chapel Hill, Durham, Raleigh or anywhere in the Triangle area, however, looking at price to define a home is somewhat limiting. Certainly the size of a house and the grounds lend a certain atmosphere of grandeur, whether restrained or plainspoken. But luxury comes from the surroundings as well as the interior of a house.

The surroundings of the rolling Piedmont hills and the proximity of the grand Great Smoky Mountains and the unparalleled Outer Banks go far to the definition. So does the renowned Pinehurst golf course 60 miles to the southeast. Chapel Hill luxury homes for sale, then, might well and accurately be almost any in the Triangle area.

Traditional homes in Meadowbrook range from 3,000 to 4,000 interior square feet and from $500,000 to $1 million. These too are options.
